Water Bill Issues?
Having issues with your water bill?
First- Learn how to read your water meter
H2ouse.org : Resources : Read Your Meter
http://www.h2ouse.org/resources/meter/index.cfm
Check for meter leaks here:

Check your toilets for leaks.

Even a silent toilet leak (that’s one you normally can’t hear) will waste from 30 to 500 gallons of water per day! The ones you can hear will waste much, much more. Such wastage can normally be attributed to a faulty water level adjustment or to a leaky flapper.
Are your faucets leaking?
